Owen Hargreaves has told BT Sport that West Ham United goalkeeper Adrian had a ‘brain freeze’ against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

The former Manchester United and Manchester City midfielder made the comment while analysing Spurs’ first goal of the Premier League encounter at White Hart Lane.

Danny Rose halved the deficit for hosts Tottenham in the 81st minute when he found the target from outside the Hammers' penalty box.

It was actually a mis-hit from the 24-year-old full-back which West Ham goalkeeper Adrian failed to keep out, and Hargreaves believes that the 28-year-old Spaniard should have stopped it from going in.
